All right, Alexander, we are going to have to discuss the situation in the United States.

And a couple of days ago, I thought the momentum was towards Biden staying.

But my sense of things is that the momentum has shifted and that the donors, without a doubt the donors want him gone, and the media,

it seems like most of the mainstream media is with the donors and they want Biden hard.

I mean, the New York Times is going very hard against Biden, as is the Washington Post,

as it appears CNN as well. They're, they're,

angling at trying to get Biden to go. And you know, with each story that they publish about

Biden, it makes it harder for Biden to stay. With every story that they put out there about how

unfit Biden is to be the candidate for the Democrats. It makes it that much

harder for Biden to justify his position as the 2024 Democrat Party candidate. Do you sense the same

shift in momentum? I mean, a few days ago, it seemed Biden was, they were going to

stick with Biden. Now it looks like the momentum is moving in the direction of trying to find a way.

I don't think they've found it yet. Trying to find the formula with money, with finances,

legal, trying to find how they can maneuver Biden out. What are your thoughts?

I think that's exactly right. Now, I'll tell you, I think what's happened. I think the

private polling data is coming through. I think that after the disastrous performance, they

had a collective freak out. They said, you know, this can't,

we can't go ahead with Biden. It's impossible. We will lose the election. And then they

stared at because Biden didn't want to leave. He's immediate circle basically closed the wagons

around him. They also looked at how complicated and

difficult it would be to replace him with someone else at this very late stage. So for a short,

brief time, it looked as if there was a steadying of nerves and a sort of coming together around him.
